I’ve been traveling non-stop and while it’s all been great, I really can’t wait to be home with Joe for at least 3 nights in a row and get back into my own kitchen!
Since Spring is around the corner and I love all the freshness that this season has to offer, it’s time to come up with the menu.
I’m dying for some asparagus and I saw the first bunches of the season at market, so adding that to the list is at the very top. I’m craving an old favorite, — a crostini topped with ricotta, asparagus and mint. And braised chicken is always such a hit! The dish I’m thinking about is so easy to make, just a few ingredients and the meat is succulent, juicy and falls off the bone. I’m thinking chicken breast with 40, yes 40, cloves of garlic.
And since there’s a plethora of citrus available right now, one of Joe’s favorites is citrus salad with honey, white balsamic dressing and topped with fresh spearmint. For dessert, in honor of my mom, I’m thinking about her super Lemon-y Lemon Bars. All this citrus has the added bonus of a healthy dose of vitamin C.
Here’s what I’ve got in mind:
Bon Appetit!
